I was in Chicago at the National last year and was laser focused on finding a nice T227 Ty Cobb. I was striking out, having only seen one that was not very nice and significantly over priced. I had just seen a friend who was in a similar situation, not being able to find what he was looking for. Literally the next table was Roger. He had a really nice looking Cobb at a very fair price. I bought it and it is one of my favorite cards. The card is great, but the conversation with Roger was better by far. I am blessed to have known him. He shared that he was sick and what was going on. I came back and talked to him the other days of the show as well. We had some great talks. He was one of the good ones for sure. My sympathies to his wife.
